worse service we have ever had any where

by jeepboy37

I will not rant as I wish to but lets just say we will never go back to petes again the wait staff was so horrible to us and when we complain to the manager she told us maybe we should not come back! Which was a shock sence we had such bad service from not getting greeted at the table for 30 mins after setting down to a waitress that was so rude and slow with drinks and food we did not even tip her. The food was cold and presentation well there was none we have gone there many time and the service is allways fair to poor but this was one for the record books.

• Pros: none
• Cons: bad staff from mangement on down

Beautiful Steaks

by bricpeter

I can only speak to the Pete Miller's in Wheeling...

Food is fantastic! Highly recommend their horseradish encrusted fillet mignon or fantastic pork chop with apple chutney. Best pork chop and fillet I have ever had. Simply put, Pete Miller's does a fantastic job with beef and pork; however, not so much with fish. Fish at Pete's is average, at best.

This is a great place to bring a date due to the nice intimate surroundings. Even when completely packed and with a live Jazz band playing, you can hold a conversation without having to shout. I am continuously talking this place up with co-workers who are looking to have a special diner with their special someone.

Fantastic and extremely knowledgeable wait staff; though some, as noted in other reviews, can be a bit pretentious. However, this does not overshadow the dining experience.

Pete's has yet to disappoint! Oh yes - they make a great Manhattan too!

Average dinner price per person: $20 - $45

• Pros: Steaks and Porkchops; Intimate atmosphere; Great place for special occasions
• Cons: Can be pricey; Wait staff can be stuffy

Pete Millers Evanston

by fashionista18

The food is great.With a few exceptions, the service in the main dining room is terrible.A majority of the waiters have a chip on their shoulders and act very snobby, unpleasant, and condescending.We have gone there many times and have experienced the same thing with various waiters.They act pissed off when you don't order alcohol and the most expensive thing on the menu.The table bussers are quite friendly though.The service in the Billiards room is much better because the people are friendly and hospitable.That said,the restaurant is good over all.

• Pros: Food, Bread
• Cons: Waiters
